building to flash

I'm still confused.  I'm still new to CCS.  What do I have to do to get CCSv4 program to flash on the 2808/2801?

Rick,

In CCS 4 if code or data is mapped to flash in the linker command file, then code composer will program the flash whenever you load the .out file.   There is no need to call a separate flash programmer.

Rick,

In the last screen shot you sent, the option called Set C system stack size (--stack_size, -stack) is blank, thus causing the first warning you saw.

(warning: creating ".stack" section with default size of 0x400; use the -stack option to change the default size)

The error spawned later tells that the linker tried to allocate the default stack size above (the object ".stack" of size 0x400) but couldn't find enough space in any of the memory regions of your device. It also says the maximum memory space it could find is located in the memory region called RAMM1 and its size is 0x380.

run placement fails for object ".stack", size 0x400 (page 1). Available ranges:

RAMM1 size: 0x380 unused: 0x380 max hole: 0x380

Therefore my conclusion is that the Debug version of the project has a value in this field that is smaller than 0x400.

To compare these two options select Debug in the Configuration drop-down menu on the top of the last screen you sent. You should see a value there.

Just for testing I would copy the same value to the Release configuration and see if the project builds fine.

Let me know if you succeed in this.
